Loading of sucrose from companion cells to sieve tube cell is:
Correct answer: B. Active transport
- A. Diffusion
- B. Active transport
- C. Passive transport
- D. Facilitated diffusion
Explanation
Loading of sucrose from companion cells to sieve tube cells involves active transport. Companion cells actively pump sucrose into the sieve tube elements of the phloem, creating a concentration gradient that drives the movement of sucrose from source tissues to sink tissues in the plant.

About Circulation
The circulatory system covers the chambers, valves and conducting pathway of the human heart, along with the cardiac cycle and control of heartbeat. It compares arteries, veins and capillaries by structure and function, and explains how the lymphatic system returns tissue fluid, transports absorbed fats and supports immunity.
